Macros tutorial

The macros available on this website were designed to facilitate building of linear and logistic regression models. They conduct all the required analyses using SAS statistical program, export the desired results to MS Excel and create formatted tables of results almost ready for publication in journals and reports.

Each macro is accompanied by an e-Learning module demonstrating a step-by-step procedure to execute the macro and interpret the output using a worked example. It is strongly recommended to read the module and conduct the analyses presented in the worked example before employing the macros for analysing your own data.

These macros are available free of cost but must be acknowledged when used.
